Abstract

First and second handle bar segments located on respectively opposite sides of a horizontal connector is attached to a revolving bicycle handle. Each bicycle revolving handle has a control member rotatably coupled to a core member that is rigidly attached to the handle bar segment. A pin that is coupled to the control member and operated by a finger operated lever selectively disengages the control member from the core member to allow the control member, and a hand grip attached to the control member, to revolve 360 degrees about the handle bar segment.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A bicycle handle comprising:
 a horizontal connection piece;   first and second handle bar segments located on respectively opposite sides of said horizontal connection piece,   first and second control members coupled to a core member, the core member is coupled to said first and second handle bar segments; and   first and second hand grips coupled to said first and second control members.   
   
   
       2 . The bicycle handle of  claim 1  wherein said first and second control members revolve about a longitudinal axis of said handle bar segments. 
   
   
       3 . The bicycle handle of  claim 2  wherein said first and second hand grips are perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said handle bar segments. 
   
   
       4 . The bicycle handle of  claim 3  wherein said control members can rotate 360 degrees about the longitudinal axis of said handle bar segments. 
   
   
       5 . The bicycle handle of  claim 4  wherein said first and second control members each include a core member coupled to said handle bar segments. 
   
   
       6 . The bicycle handle of  claim 5  wherein said first and second core members are fixedly coupled to the handle bar segments. 
   
   
       7 . The bicycle handle of  claim 6  wherein each of said first and second control members includes a pin that removably engages said core members. 
   
   
       8 . The bicycle handle of  claim 7  wherein said control member are locked to said core members when said pin engages said core members. 
   
   
       9 . The bicycle handle of  claim 8  wherein a finger operated lever coupled to said control member is coupled to controllably release said pin from said core member. 
   
   
       10 . The bicycle handle of  claim 9  wherein said finger operated lever is coupled to a spring that urges said pin to engage said core member. 
   
   
       11 . A revolving handle for attachment to a handle bar segment located on an end of a horizontal bar of a bicycle handle bar comprising:
 a control member;   a hand grip coupled to said control member; and   a core member rotatably coupled to said control member;   wherein said core member is adapted to be coupled to said handle bar segment.   
   
   
       12 . The revolving handle of  claim 11  wherein said control member is rotatably coupled to said core member. 
   
   
       13 . The revolving handle of  claim 12  wherein said control member includes a pin that removably engages said core member to lock said control member to said core member. 
   
   
       14 . The revolving handle of  claim 13  wherein said control member can rotate 360 degrees about said core member when said core member is not engaged by said pin. 
   
   
       15 . The revolving handle of  claim 14  wherein said pin engages said core member. 
   
   
       16 . The revolving handle of  claim 15  wherein a finger operated lever located in said control member is coupled to selectively disengage said pin from said core member. 
   
   
       17 . The revolving handle of  claim 16  wherein a spring is coupled to said finger operated lever to urge said pin to engage said core member. 
   
   
       18 . The revolving handle of  claim 17  wherein said hand grip, when located on a handle bar segment on an end of a horizontal bar of a bicycle handle bar, can revolve 360 degrees about a longitudinal axis of said segment. 
   
   
       19 . The revolving handle of  claim 17  wherein said hand grip, when located on a handle bar segment on an end of a horizontal bar of a bicycle handle bar, is positioned perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of said segment.
